I have planned in the future to paint the stock rims black but i don't really know how it'll turn out. I kinda like the silver with the white...i don't know why though. Hmmm.

I say no to the eyelids, i think it'll just take away from the clean, flush look of the front end.
Ever thought of removing the reflectors, buying a can of "nite-shade" blacking those suckers out? (I did that with my side markers) You would now have yourself a set of blacked out reflectors. Totally custom, in line with the blacked out look and I don't believe i've seen that here before.

Yeah, it's a spray tint, but it doesn't fade nor does it peel. I've had my taillights blacked out for two years with nite shade and there is no fading or peeling at all.

+1

I recently did my tails and turn signals (on the front fender) and I really like the look. It has only been a couple of weeks, so dunno about the fading/peeling, but I trust Al on that. Just for added protection, I cleared over them...but I don't think that would even be necessary. I'd say do it up! It would definitely look good.

I dunno if you guys have these things up there but some shops sell these stainless steel brackets. More like a flat piece of metal with two holes in it. Just screws onto the lower part of your bumper so you don have to put those dam stickers on your baby's beautiful smooth rear end

Do you know of any company that sells them cheap? I remember seeing it on ebay but i know the shipping would be killer!
